ADG Profumo by Yusuf Bhai
Got this perfume all the way from dubai when my brother went there for travelling. Had heard alot of good things about Yusuf bhai, so I decided to get ADG profumo as it was discontinued and I saw Jeremy Fragrance glaze the shii outta this frag saying how its the most complimented Fragrance of all time(he ranked this as no.1 on his top 10 list).
Talking about the clone, its a very masculine and classic fresh green fragrance with spicy incensy smell. It's def somewhat of an unique smell despite being a green freshie.
Smell : - Opens with a blast of spicy citrus and fresh aromatic smell (uplifting) with noticeable smell of incense. Did not smell any sea note as mentioned on fragrentica (maybe because I've not been near any sea 😌)
Citrus settles down and it becomes aromatic, spicy and woody after few mins. That incensy smell increases. Tho the freshness is still there.
Dry down smells woody, little citrusy and spicy with again, that a even stronger smell of incense.(it literally has a incense in base note 🤓)
To be honest, I didn't find the top notes that different from middle or base notes. It feels like there is no any big noticeable transition of smell but rather linear throughout, which is great in this case because it smells good from the start.
Performance : This is quite interesting. When I first got, it used to last for 4-5 hours only with maybe 1 hour of moderate projection. But now, after 3 months I've found there was massive increase in Performance. Now It lasts for more than 8 hours on skin. Could even smell hints of it on the 9th hour mark 🤯. Projects for almost 2 hours. There's good projection for 1.5 hrs, after that you get wiffs of it from time to time.
Usage: A very very versatile fragrance, I feel like you can wear this all year round, both night and day, can even rock on dates(said by many youtubers😂). Also my go-to gym fragrance. The smell is quite unique and inoffensive and has depth to it while being not too potent. But beware it's a bit matured-man scent, best for office and formal scenarios imo.
Compliment: Have received a few compliments from my friends while wearing this. Also, my mom loves it❤️.
Sadly, I have not smelled the original profumo but from all the reviews online, I think it's pretty similar. Youtuber Perfumegyaan said that profumo smells like the leaves of unripened green mangoes. There's a very peculiar smell coming out of those leaves and you get wiffs of smtg similar in profumo(or this clone). I felt like that was a really good observation by him as this clone smelled smtg similar too.
Cost = Somewhere around 75dhirams.
Overall, a 9/10 fragrance. My go-to frag when I'm going out casually or even in gym (The big dent in just 3+ months says everything 😂).
My only complain is, I wish it was abit more stronger even after 2-3 hours 😅.
